Irritation

Date:

Since Christ suffered physically,
Take the same attitude He had;
To tolerate literally,
No matter how much it feels bad.

A person that maybe suffers,
Will not be sinning anymore;
Because your soul having buffers,
While it has secured the door.

No longer will you be guided,
By sinful human desires;
As long as He is abided,
His Word is dousing the fires.

You will live the rest of your life,
The way that God desires you;
Though irritations cause you strife,
Tolerate to continue through.

You spent long enough in the past,
The way that nonbelievers do;
But you have a hope to outlast,
That you know being very true.

You were very promiscuous,
About desires filled with lust;
Women who were voluptuous,
You had sex and had put your trust.

Unbelievers insult you now,
Because you no longer join them;
And they cannot understand how,
You changed and started to condemn.

They will be giving an account,
To one who is ready to judge;
Verdicts will be in the amount,
From one who does not hold a grudge.

So always practice self control,
Keep a clear mind so you can pray;
Love each other with heart and soul,
For love covers sin when you obey.

Richard Sherrer is actually retired from the United States Air Force about 14 years ago. He had lived in Korea while in the Air Force in 1972 and 1973. You might be asking yourself what brought him back to Korea. I guess you could say that it was a lot of love here, for the country, the people and especially for a Christian woman that he met on the Internet. She convinced him to return to be with her. So he came originally to teach English in July of 2000. They were married July of 2001. Now turned poet which is subject that is near and dear to his heart. His love for Christ and God is an inspiration to all who read his poetry.
